Gotcow, you are hopeless. I feel like I'm in a western version of "All in the Family" and you are Archy Bunker in a cowboy hat.
I will say this, it takes a pretty fit athletic horse to jump fences, or stay at a nice slow lope all collected - so they are athletes - just like ballerina's are athletes. They just may have a different build and not be involved in something you care to watch. It doesn't make them "duds"
